About Bangkok

Introduction

Bangkok's rapid growth amidst little urban planning and regulation has resulted in a haphazard cityscape and inadequate infrastructure systems. Limited roads, despite an extensive
expressway network, together with substantial private car usage, have resulted in chronic and crippling traffic congestion. This in turn caused severe air pollution in the 1990s.
The city has since turned to public transport in an attempt to solve this major problem.
Four rapid transit lines are now in operation, with more systems under construction or planned by the national government and the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration.

Topography

Bangkok is on the lower of Chao Phraya River bank. It's situated on the central plain that had been built from the eroded topsoils of mountains in the north of the country for million years. With time, the eroded mountain soils had flowed into the sea by the Chao Phraya River and built an alluvial fan delta layer by layer that eventually became the central plain that would be an extremely fertile land. In Bangkok, the land stands only 1-2 meters above sea level.
